TurboBrett Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I average 23.5 on my daily commute (a highway type road with many lights). I got 33.5 on a 70mph road trip i made last week, I was trying very hard to save mileage just to see how much I could get... like by accelerating down hills and not so much up hills, no cruise control because it's not designed to get the best mileage. my car has 2200K miles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 ...my car has 2200K miles :eek: That's a typo, right? 2200K = 2,200,000 miles ! I know Scoobys last a long, long time, but that's a lotta miles, especially for an '05 ! <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSiWRX Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 KayGT, I know what you mean about humidity - we're having very ugly days here in Cleveland, Ohio, too. Not certain, though, how that affects fuel economy. Good to hear that you definitely have all of your other bases covered, though! <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raz-0 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Edit-- BTW, I just went the AP stage 1 route, and the work that Cobb has done with the throttle tip in has taken a lot of touchiness out of the throttle. you have to taunt me don't you...

turboWagon Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 How did you guys calculate the Avg. MPG? I found the on-board computer’s numbers are much higher then manual calculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springnr Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 How did you guys calculate the Avg. MPG? I found the on-board computer’s numbers are much higher then manual calculation. I use the Ultimate Fuel Logbook and Mileage Spreadsheet. I'm at ~17.5K miles and 22.07 mpg avg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unilat Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Unilat - Heya Good Neighbor, LOL, forget the chart (impressive, to say the least, BTW!) - let's talk about you in that Lambo!

ROFL. That was a riot of a post - well done! I'm highly jealous.....not so much of getting to drive that beast (as I would have soiled my pants at the, er, "stress"), but more so that you got a blast of a quick ride with all 12 (or 9?) cylinders screaming. Thanks for pointing me there, good neighbor. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
